Projects

Rekindle has achieved 5 major projects to date and many other smaller outcomes so far. This has been made possible by a large number of people who have, since 2010 worked alongside Juliet Arnott to enable this mission toward greater resourcefulness.

The ever-changing collaborative space at Shop Eight that Liz Phelan & Juliet Arnott opened together in April 2012:

Social Soup in Cashel Street: bringing people back into the very centre of Christchurch, December 2012. A work by Tessa Peach & Heather Hayward which included a long, long line of our trestle tables

The Pegahorn: A project facilitated with the children at the Chomondeley Children's Home for Sculpture on the Peninsula. Emma Byrne got this project going and had a team of helpers. Materials used were waste rope from Stark Brothers Shipping, driftwood and other found materials.

Our furniture & Offcut products, made from timber that would have otherwise gone to landfill via the Burwood Resource Recovery Park. This is being landfilled due to lack of viable technology in place to separate this untreated material from treated timber.

Our pop-up shop on Auckland's waterfront in December 2014, the fit out made from waste exhibition panels, carpet and ply, in collaboration with Dragonbox Design:
